Welcome to OncologyPRO, the home of ESMO’s educational and scientific resources, with Guidelines, a comprehensive list of E-Learning modules, Factsheets on biomarkers, slides and webcasts from our educational programme, and more... to support continuing medical education and daily practice!

The MAP congress is a one-of-a-kind meeting designed by a faculty of highly influential key opinion leaders to answer the need on how to integrate in daily practice the wealth of information coming from the analysis of tumour samples.

Cancer Research UK (CRUK), the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) and UNICANCER are the organisers of this annual forum where the understanding of the tumour microenvironment as well as the impact of macroevolution and their connection to treatment resistance is a significant field of discussion in personalised medicine. New models, technologies, the current treatment advances available and new findings of ongoing clinical trials are vital to understanding which molecular alterations should be the object of therapeutic targets in cancer treatment.
